Redefining ultra-luxury at sea
Regent Seven Seas Cruises takes cruising to an all-new level with its newest, most ambitious ship yet
ENTER A NEW WORLD OF ultra-luxury cruising when Regent Seven Seas Cruises unveils its much-anticipated new ship, Seven Seas Prestige, in December 2026 – boasting the largest ultra-lavish residential suite at sea.
Making its debut on Dec 13, 2026, the 822-guest ship reinvents seafaring glamour – headlined by the soaring Starlight Atrium, a show-stopping centrepiece with its dramatic twin spiral staircases. Fusing old-world elegance and modern sophistication, the space links to multiple facilities including the casino, concierge and signature Galileo’s Bar. Sip champagne while admiring the stunning ceiling styled like an oil painting, or ascend to level five for the breathtaking ocean view.
Seven Seas Prestige presents All-Inclusive, Unrivalled Luxury across 12 suite categories, including the brand-new residential-style Skyview Suites and Grand Loft Suites, as well as Horizon Penthouse Suites with oversized outdoor space.
Every suite category offers unlimited shore excursions, 11 dining venues – including the new Mediterranean mezze-style Azure – fine wines, world-class entertainment, high-speed Wi-Fi and top-notch hospitality.
The ultimate indulgence is the two-level Skyview Regent Suite, complete with a wraparound balcony for an uninterrupted, 360-degree view of the ocean. The suite boasts two bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms, a walk-in wardrobe, living room, and dining room with a glass-encased bar. A suspended staircase of natural stone and a private elevator provide effortless access between levels.
The suite also has its own fully equipped private gym and dedicated massage room. Personal butler service is a given, while a private car with driver and guide is available at every port. Seal the experience with a curated pillow and linen menu, caviar, canapes, Dom Perignon, Remy Martin Louis XIII, shoeshine service, and unlimited laundry. Rates begin at US$25,000 per night.
A new legacy begins
There are 13 inaugural season voyages across the Caribbean and Europe to choose from, starting from US$6,499 per guest for a Deluxe Veranda Suite. Itineraries range from 10 to 15 nights and include two Panama Canal transits, plus overnight stays in London, Lisbon and Bordeaux, giving guests the opportunity to discover a different side of each destination after the sun sets.
Be the first to board Seven Seas Prestige on Dec 13, 2026, when it embarks on a 14-night Felices Fiestas transatlantic sailing from Barcelona to Miami. Along the way, explore the Spanish port city of Malaga; the volcanic cliffs of Madeira in Portugal; and Tortola in the British Virgin Islands, beloved for its white sand beaches.
Two sun-drenched Caribbean cruises follow: the 11-night Azure Elegance and 10-night Caribbean Zephyr, each packed with up to 84 excursions. Discover colourful Mexico and Jamaica, as well as the island charms of Antigua, St Kitts & Nevis, and Guadeloupe.
Meanwhile, the 12-night Sapphire Sojourn departs Feb 10 from Los Angeles to Panama City, tracing the Mexican Riviera’s golden coastline before reaching Guatemala, known for its cobblestones and coffee, and Costa Rica’s tropical beaches and majestic rainforest.
In March, journey to the Eastern Caribbean on the 12-night Prestige Isles voyage through St Thomas, St Lucia and Barbados; a 10-night Tropical Passage from Miami to San Juan; or the 10-night Caribbean Mystique back to Miami in St Maarten, the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas. Each cruise invites guests to unplug and immerse themselves in warm breezes, turquoise waters and easy island rhythm.
The season wraps in April and May with two European sailings: the 14-night Sunlit Iberia departing Barcelona on May 11, 2027, for London (Southampton), with stops in Lisbon and Pauillac (Bordeaux). The 12-night Regal Shores departs May 27 from Southampton to Lisbon with up to 65 excursions across Paris (Le Havre), Gijon and Pauillac.
